Question:
Is it permissible for the imam or anyone else to recite with this recitation[An-Najm 53:19] with a shaddah on the taa?
Answer:
We have stated this, and a fatwa has been issued by the Permanent Committee that one should not recite with a recitation that is outside the recitation of the people of the country. So if the people of the country recite with the recitation of Hafs, he should not deviate from the people in the prayer and cause confusion for them. If they are reciting with the recitation of Warsh, he recites with that, and so on. Yes.
